Verbose Flag (for CLI)

[mordentware]

I was surprised to find that the verbose flag (-v or --verbose) was not supported, whereas it is within rm.

While this functionality could be considered as a separate package surrounding rimraf, the files being deleted are not exposed, meaning it would have to include its own globbing logic, handing single files to rimraf to delete and thereby losing much of the benefit of using it in the first place.

I appreciate the desire to keep any sort of UI out of rimraf, but given that rm supports -v (lines of removed foo/bar/baz.txt) and that rimraf advertises itself as a substitute for rm -rf, I figured it was worth a conversation.

Sure. Patch welcome :)

I too would like this, seems like there was a PR long ago :'(
